Golden Deagle Scam??

KenzieG · May 2010

I think the Golden Deagle is a scam cause z8 just want people to buy more zp to buy the 90 day item and you have like a very low chance of winning 1 new draw every day for 3 days......

Also the ugc they want us to pay more to get less..... and 3 free gp crate omg. GP it should be 3 Zp crate

What do you guys think?

i agree completeley

Scam tends to indicate ONE winning party and every other losing.

You get a 90-day weapon you would have bought anyway and you have the chance to win a 70-cupon gun for free.

Good Business plan.

Everyone will go buy 90 day now, And only a few will get a golden gun.

SpanishAnz · May 2010

the chance of winning it is probably high, no one will buy a 90 days weapon.. >.>

It's an incentive.

I had posted this on the official thread about the "golden gun giveaway", YEA RIGHT, more like the spend a bunch of money and you might get something, but probably not -event. But I guess that wouldn't be as catchy. Anyway here is my post from the other thread:

"Dont these kids spend enough money on this game already? Dont make them steal moms credit card again to buy more zp. Someone said 1 in a hundred chance- think again! how many people play this game each day? thousands? So you want these kids to spend what '10 bucks' for a chance to win a virtual gun that they have almost no chance of winning? I mean Vegas got nothing on Z-8; just give the kids a dam golden deagle for buying a 90 day weapon- its not like it cost you guys anything. LOL And btw- I'll be sitting on the bench with the rest of 'em, hope there's still room on it."

It's just a way to increase business, not a 'scam' or anything like that. Ever seen a product in the grocery store with an instant win grand prize advertised on it? That's all this is. Z8 just wants you to stock up on ZP guns now instead of waiting until your current ones run out, so they're having a promotion. Obviously you're probably not going to win, but there's always a chance, and it's certainly not a scam because they're if anything they're giving you MORE than what you paid for.

How the hell can you consider it a scam? Its like a lotto if anything. People WILL win and people WILL lose. Thats totally fair.

its 80 cupons

[dot] · May 2010

Ah, my mistake.

You stand to win an 80 (in caps!) gun for buying a gun you normally would have bought anyway.

Lu_Bu · May 2010

Its not a scam its just a extra reward for buying a 90 day items so lets say before they annouced the event u got a 90 day shovel and wouldnt think twice about it but now.............
u think its unfair because u will get a 90 day shovel and not win a golden deagle the gms are probally double facepalming them self right now for thinking of the event they try to do somonething nice and the fourms have to be negative about it. once again they did not have to do it i got the 90 day shovel without being enter to win anything but i could care least and now they have a event so everyone is like aghhhhhhh scam they whant us to get 90 day weapon for a chance to get a freee golden deagle

Thing is don't buy it unless you were going to anyways. Sure there's low odds of winning but that's typically what "giveaways" are.

exactly what i whanted to say

MrShad · May 2010

our gold DE looks like clay anyways, its ugly
i would rather have camo tbh

Gl2EENG1ANT · May 2010

Yes you are correct, technically it is not a scam. It is like playing the lotto, but I am here to play a fps not to gamble, or I would go to vegas. So yes while its not a scam, it is however a ripoff!

i agree with u and bruce but giant is right little kids do steal credit cards from their mom.

iShockeR · May 2010

Not a scam. No one is forcing you to buy the 90-day items. Stop crying cause you cant get a free pistol.

ChocDrizzle · May 2010

You'll win or lose.
It's like any game, or sport.

RunnyBabbit · May 2010

****buy 90 day mp5 adv fo 10 coupons****
****win Deagle-Gold****
****forget about this thread you made and make one saying you love z8****

xDesertEagIe · May 2010

Everyone who thinks this is a scam is just fking stupid.

It's not like they force you to buy the 90-day weapon. If you do not want to, so be it. This event is for people who are planning to already buy a 90-day weapon, and as an extra added bonus, you get a chance of winning a Golden Desert Eagle. That's it.

PRO_LUXE · May 2010

This Is Actually A Good Marketing Scheme, Buy Something And Go into the Draw To Win Something Better I See This All The Time In Shops In Real-Life So Why Is It A Scam That Z8 Does It?, The Chances Are Probably Greater Than In Real Life Promos Like This.

..
does it count if we use coupon for the 90day gun?
i dont wanna spend 11-19k zp on some trash for a chance of a g-de
M4 MP5 XM1 - Adv
AK SG552 - Camo
Shovel - Noobs
Axe - Perm
Mutation Spike - SRSLY spend that much zp on some fail mode? k

unless it count for the pretty nades, 90day guns brought wit coupons or theres something av forgotten about its really not worth it
DE-G is bad anyway it just look sexy
